So, I was already not too happy with the mobile phlebotomist that came to draw my blood this past Wednesday. She was not wearing a mask and did not put one on when drawing blood.
I noticed today that the insertion site has a small bruise. She did miss the vein on the first poke and had to move the needle a bit after insertion. This is not uncommon, though it has never happened to me with the prior mobile phlebotomist. Even with blood draws at a lab, bruising only happened two or three times before, even though I have had well over a hundred visits.
There was also some pain during the blood draw. Again, this is not uncommon. I probably rate it a three on the pain scale.
